Student Facing Expulsion After Showing Up To School In A Gas Mask And Trench Coat As A Halloween Prank

New Mexico - Pueblo County High School was on lockdown for almost two hours after authorities say a student was apprehended wearing a trench coat and gas mask. The lockdown was lifted around 10:30 a.m. A spokesperson with the Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office says the girl was not carrying any weapons, and told staff at the school that her outfit was a Halloween costume. Other students noticed the girl and told their teacher. “They were great,” District 70 Superintendent Ed Smith said. “They reported immediately to a teacher what was happening…we could react quickly because of those students. “That teacher reported it to administration right away, administration went to the scene, and escorted the individual to the office. “When being questioned, the student said it was nothing more than a Halloween prank, but again, because of the world we live in now, we take all those kinds of things very seriously.” SWAT swept the school to ensure it was safe. Members of the SWAT team were training nearby, and were able to respond quickly after receiving the call around 8:40 a.m. Wednesday. The student is now facing expulsion.

Hey bro you know its October 12 right? Not even close to Halloween. Its barely Hocus Pocus season and you’re showing up in costume? And you decide your costume to where to school involves a trenchcoat and a gas mask? You know what year it is and the world we live in? “Hey everyone do you like my costume – I’m dressed up exactly like a menacing school shooter would be!” Christ almighty man. When you dress up for Halloween at school you do it on October 30 or 31 and you’re like a mummy or Dracula or something. You dont show up looking like a goddam terrorist. For fucks sake Ahmed showed up to school with a clock and he was almost waterboarded. You’re lucky the  SWAT team didnt take you out showing up in a trench coat and gas mask. Kid should be expelled for being an idiot. You’re too dumb to go to school. You’re like 4 weeks early and you’re dressed like an asshole. You are not Pueblo County High material.
